Why use an older version of Google Chrome?

It happens frequently that a user upgrades to a new version of Google Chrome and gets upset by an unpleasant feature, a missing option or an annoying bug. Therefore, some users want to roll back to an older version of Google Chrome to preserve a useful feature, option or support some legacy technology. However, is it really wise to use an out-dated verison of Google Chrome? The answer is NO since out-dated browsers usually come with security issues. A better solution to the problem is to use Slimjet browser, which runs on the latest Blink engine while offering more flexibity, features and options compared with Google Chrome.

Got it to load and work on my 32 bit machine, but this is the same dynamic library failure I reported on trying to load Slimjet on the 32 bit

I just heard this morning that Google is going to lock people out of GMail if they're using any version of Chrome older than 53. I am on 49. Can I use the files on this website to upgrade my version of Chrome while still running Vista?

Linux Mint Cinnamon 17.1---Downloaded Chrome 52 to replace a newer Chromium version (54?) that has the annoying Semantic invalid certificate problem that prevented some sites from working--WeatherUnderground in particular. Worked as it should--and the way it did before the 'upgrade'. This site is a valuable resource--bookmarked. THANK YOU!!! : )

Thanks very much for providing the older Chrome versions. Do you know of a source for Chrome for business older versions - particularly 53 or slightly earlier. This is to fix the issue with Citrix not working properly with 54. We've tried the standalone 53 and it does work but we need to deploy admx etc. via gpo to customise. Many thanksAndy
